Ah well... I once left my 12V refridgerator on after parking in the middle of nowhere on Hardangervidda for a weekend of hiking. The beer was cold but I had to wait 4 hours before someone accidentally got lost and drove by to jump start my G. And of course it had to be a Mitsu Pajero  | |

Fenalaar - 3/24/2007 6:20 PM Came out today, and discovered I had left the map reading light on last night... Johan-Kr I replaced the glow-plug bulb in the map light with a 12V LED. I sometimes leave it on on purpose when I leave the car in remote areas to make it easier to find the way back in the dark. You can leave the LED on for days and still start the car.......  | |

I've been thinking about a dual battery system, in the event I wanted a winch. Perhaps I should install one anyways, in case I ever feel the need to read maps or need cold beer in the middle of Hardangervidda Johan-Kr | |

California being the leader in everything, the US is not far behind. Smart chaps these Japanese. They decide to rename the Pajero in Spain and other predominantly Spanish-speaking countries, as you rightly point out, and forget that the Canary Islands are part of Spain, where the Pajero has always been named the PAJERO.  | |
